8:45 PM - mports: xfce 3.x and linux-flock
xfce
Today, I added an xfce port to mports. It is only version 3, but the missing gdk-pixbuf dependancy was finally fixed. In case anyone is curious, I had to use our port of libtool to get it to build properly with shared libraries. xfce 4 is very large so I don't know about supporting it right away. This was done after a user request for xfce. I don't care for it.
flock
linux-flock was updated to 1.2.5 today. This includes several security fixes and feature enhancements. For instance, Digg was added in 1.2. It also includes a working copy of flash player so you can enjoy youtube without much hassle.
I added a new port, deskutils/twitter which is a shell script that allows you to update your twitter account from the command line. usage is like:
# twitter username password "my entry here"
midnightbsd-backgrounds
Another port of interest is the x11-themes/midnightbsd-backgrounds that installs desktop wallpaper with the MidnightBSD logo. There are several variations created by myself and "smultron". We'll be adding more to that port at a later time. It currently installs in a way that KDE can pick up. We'd like to get gnome aware at a later time.
bind 9.5.0-p2
I've updated our bind 9.5 port to p2.
